but that's not the big point right now. the critical point is as moody's is warning, as ben bernanke warned today and congress, the critical point is this country must not go into default on august 2nd. and they need to reach some minimal agreement to avoid that. that should not be hard to do. now, what they can get beyond that is really important, but it's not as urgently necessary as making sure we get this done. then we can move to the more moderate term crisis or the moderate crisis, moderate term crisis which is the huge deficits. we do have to solve those, but not before august 2nd. we have to get a deal to avoid a catastrophe on august 2nd. >> so nicole, for republicans tomorrow, do they need to change strategy, given what happened today? or what do they do going into this meeting tomorrow? >> look, it was barack obama who stood in the rose garden just a few months ago and talked about -- when he signed into law the extension of the bush tax cuts, he seemed to understand that raising taxes is not the right thing to d

how big of a hit is that for rupert murdock's media empire? >> it's a very big hit indeed. in british constitution, if i can call it that, and political practice, what is going to unfold this afternoon and this evening, in the parliament here, is a fundamental significance. all three major parties accounting for more than 600 of the 650 seats in the house of commons will be voting for a resolution move by the opposition labor party that calls for mr. murdoch to abandon that takeover bid which would be one of the biggest, if not the single biggest, i believe, media takeover bids in the history of this country. it will fundamentally affect the future of news corporation because in my view, at least, a vote in the house of commons by all three parties asking to get out of that bid, is probably going to end be the bid for all practical purposes and cause news corp to go back to the drawing board and refashion its future. >> if there is an investigation here in the united states, because apparently senator rockefeller here is calling for an investigation into whether news corp b
